BANG, BANG, AND YOU’RE DEAD!

It seems to me that the NRA has muddied the waters of collective wisdom by misleading the American public into thinking that the 2nd Amendment has something to do with individual rights.

The 2nd Amendment was designed to guarantee states the ability to bear arms through a well established and organized militia, not a bunch of wanna-be soldiers playing with assault rifles. If you wish to interpret the 2nd Amendment then you need to read it properly and understand the King’s English.

"A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed."

Definition of ‘militia’ - noun

“A body of citizens enrolled for military service, and called out periodically for drill but serving full time only in emergencies.
A body of citizen soldiers distinguished from professional soldiers.
All able-bodied males considered by law eligible for military service.
A body of citizens organized in a paramilitary group and typically regarding themselves as defenders of individual rights against the presumed interference of the federal government.”

Nowhere does this say private citizens in any stretch of the imagination.

There are groups of people who belong to hunting clubs or hunt on their own. They own rifles for the sport of it and that is their right as citizens. The 2nd Amendment does not address that for private ownership of a gun.

Even so, the fault lies not in the interpretation of the law but the misuse of the logic we possess when we speak of gun ownership. Assault rifles are the issue. These are weapons used to inflict multi-casualties within a short period. These are for military use and should be limited to the military.

There are all kinds of laws being written bout background checks and red flag laws. Let's throw that all out and instead make one law: the sale of military assault weapons to private citizens is a Federal crime and the punitive costs are high, life in jail.

Enough of “Thoughts and prayers” Senator McConnell, stop the BS that you are spewing to protect your political agenda and cowardly fear of the NRA I doubt very much you are praying for anything but your cowardly hide and pathetic and archaic party.
